As you have learned throughout this module, media bias may play a role in society’s perception of police. The media have the ability to sway the public’s opinion of police in either a negative or positive manner, depending on how they portray an incident to the public. For this discussion, you will provide an example in which media bias played a role in the public’s perception of police.
For your initial post:
- Describe an instance in which you have seen media bias play a role in the public’s perception of police through a public example:
- This can be an instance that you read about in the news, saw on TV, or read online. Please focus on a public instance and do not share a personal example.
- Provide background information regarding the incident. Address all aspects of what occurred: who, what, when, where, why, and how.
- Address the following questions:
- Did media bias affect the public’s perception of police in a positive or negative way? How do you know?
- Whose perception of police did the media bias affect?
- How did the agency respond to the media?
